NAME

.edt_swapp - software application file

DESCRIPTION

The .edt_swapp file is read by the firmware program  filledt
on  its second pass during the self-configuration process to
rename specified Equipped Device Table (EDT)  entries.   The
file has the following format:
          SLOT SWNAME    HWNAME
          .         .         .
          .         .         .
          .         .         .
          FF
The number in the slot field specifies the entry in the  EDT
to be updated.  The SWNAME column contains the new name that
will be associated with this board.  The HWNAME  field  con-
tains  the  name  that the board was associated with generi-
cally.  The last line contains FF for  the  slot  number  to
signal  the  end of the data to the firmware.  This file can
be displayed by the editsa -l command.
